What is the light source that allows us to see the moon?
The light source that allows us to see the moon is the sun. The sun's light reflects off the surface of the moon, making it visible to us on Earth.
How is the moon visible to us on earth?
The sun's light reflects off of the surface of the moon, illuminating it and allowing us to see it.
Why can a person see the moon from earth?
A person can see the Moon from Earth because the Moon reflects sunlight, which makes it visible to us. When the Sun's light hits the Moon's surface, it bounces off and travels to Earth, allowing us to see the Moon in the night sky.
Why can you see the moon even though it does not emit its own light?
The moon reflects light from the sun, making it visible to us on Earth. This reflected light allows us to see the moon in the night sky even though it does not emit its own light.
Why don't we see a full moon every night?
because the position of the moon between the earth and the sun only allows us to see part of it. hence the 28 day cycle in which we can see a full moon once every 28 days.

Do all earth hemispheres see the same side of the moon?
As long as you're on Earth, you will always see the same side of the moon. This is because the moon is tidally locked with the earth, meaning is rotational period is the same as its revolutionary period. This allows us to always see the same side of the moon, no matter where on earth we are.
What part of the moon faces earth when the moon and the sun are on the same side of earth?
The same side of the moon always faces the Earth, with the exception of small changes caused by libration. Only 50 % of the moon is visible at one time from Earth, but this effect allows us to see a total of about 59% of the surface over time. See the link.

Is moon a source of light?
No, the moon does not emit its own light. Instead, it reflects light from the sun, which is why the moon appears to light up the night sky. This phenomenon is what allows us to see the moon from Earth.
What makes it possible for us the see the moon from earth?
Sunlight reflecting off the surface of the Moon.
Why does the moon look different to us on the earth?
The moon is constantly orbiting the Earth and the moon gets it's light from the sun, observers (us) on Earth see sunlight hitting the moon at different angles - thus creating the lunar phases.
If you can see a full moon at your position on earth what type of moon will you see if you go exactly the opposite side of the world on the same day?
If you can see a full moon at your position on Earth, then someone on the exact opposite side of the world will see a new moon. This is because the full moon is when the side of the moon facing Earth is fully illuminated by the sun, so the side facing away from Earth is in shadow.
Why can you see the moon from earth?
Because the light from the sun is reflected off of earth, shining on to the moon so it is then visible to us earthlings.
